Identifying What Needs To Be Done
We examine each of
these perspectives with
you to identify the
goals, implications,
and specifically what
needs to be addressed

VirtualGateway
AWS Virtual Private Network (IPSec VPN)
o IPSec hardware VPN connection
Supported VPN appliances:
https://aws.amazon.com/vpc/faqs/#C9
o Encryption and Validation
o Private RFC 1918 Addressing
o Uses Border Gateway Protocol (BGP)
for routing and fail-over
o VPN Service provides managed
redundant end-points

IPSec VPN
AWS Direct Connect
o Requires Layer 2 single mode fiber
1000BASE-LX or 10GBASE-LR
o Requires 802.1Q VLANs across
connection.
Tagging of IP traffic
o Routing uses BGP A/A or A/P
multipath.
o Each DX is mapped to a single AWS
Region

AWS Direct Connect + AWS VPN
o Dedicated network path with assured
bandwidth
o More secure than Internet-based IPSec
VPN – avoids internet traverse
o Reduced IPSec network transfer costs
o Additional Network Security

AWS Directory Service
o Deploys in two modes
Directory Service Connect
Simple AD - built on Samba 4 Active
Directory compatible server
o Simplifies IAM Federation
Avoids complexity and cost of hosting
SAML-based federation infrastructure
Acts as a proxy - no data is stored on
AWS infrastructure
Supports existing RADIUS-based MFA
